Guide to Party Labels 143 ·' ELECTION RESULTS FOR THE U.S. SENATE AND THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES This publication has been prepared by the Federal Election Commission to provide the public with the results of elections held in the fifty states during 1994 for the office of United States Senator and United States Representative. Also, there are results for Delegate to Congress from American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, and the Virgin Islands. There was no election for Resident Commissioner in Puerto Rico as their election is held every four years and coincides with the Presidential election. In addition, there are results for U.S. Senator in the Oklahoma special election, and in the election to fill the unexpired Senate term in Tennessee. The Commission undertakes this project on a biennial basis in order to respond to public inquiries. The elections for the office of United States Senator and United States Representative are administered by local election officials in towns, counties, municipalities, and other jurisdictions. The results of the elections are certified by the state government, which in most cases is the Secretary of State. While the full records are available for public inspection, most states prepare summary reports for public dissemination. These summary reports vary in form and content, and may be amended well after the election. There is no standard format that states use in reporting federal election results. Recognizing a need to bring together in one place the Federal election results, the Commission presents this publication as the seventh in a series designed to provide an accurate, historical record of Federal election results. Previous publications in this series have included only general election results. Included in this publication for the first time are the official results of primary elections and run-off elections held in 1994. As in the case of the general elections, primary elections are not administered by the federal government. In some states (such as Connecticut, Utah, and Virginia), political party organizations control their nomination process by way of conventions. In other states, state law may regulate the primary and/or its administration. Data is based on official figures provided by State election officials, and includes results amended through March 24, 1995. The assistance provided by the State election officials and their staff in gathering this data is greatly appreciated. Special thanks is also given to Eileen Canavan, Public Affairs Specialist in the Commission's Public Disclosure Division, for the invaluable assistance she provided in compiling the data for this publication. This publication has been prepared as a research tool for Commission staff and State election offices. Additional copies may be ordered from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), U.S. Department of Commerce, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, Virginia 22161. 703/487-4650. -1- EXPLANATORY NOTES • The candidate who was the winner of the general election is listed first in each state and district entry. After that, the candidates are arranged by party affiliation. • The party affiliation of the candidate has been abbreviated. A complete listing of party abbreviations appears at the end of this publication. • Total for write-in votes are shown as disclosed by the state. Some states list the names of candidates who received write-in votes, while others provide a write-in vote total without the names of the candidates who received the votes. Still other states combine these two variations and provide the names of some candidates who received write-in votes and a total of write-in votes for all the other candidates. • "Total Votes" and "Total District Votes" represents all the valid votes Gast for the candidates in the election. • The percentage of votes received by each candidate is based on the figure of total votes. The percentage of votes received by each candidate in a primary or run-off election is based on the figure of total votes cast in that specific primary or run-off election. • Due to the rounding of percentage num~ers, some percentages may not total 100%. .,.·,··:· -2- 1994 ELECTION RESULTS The following two sections present the primary, run-off and general election results for the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives elections held in 1994. Also included are the special election results for the U.S. Senate election in Oklahoma and the U.S. Senate election to fill the unexpired term in Tennessee. Notes on Charts * In Connecticut, Utah and Virginia, political parties may nominate general election candidate by party convention, rather than by primary election. Convention vote is not included in primary election vote totals. *Run-off election vote totals have been included with the primary election totals. For the Virgin Islands, the run-off election vote totals have been included with the general election totals. 1994 PRIMARY AID <»BW.
